Francisca Ordega has expressed her happiness, after she sealed a move to Washington Spirit.
The Maryland-based team confirmed the capture of the Super Falcons’ forward via their Twitter page and the 21-year-old has now spoken for the first time since the transfer.
“I am happy, it’s a dream come true for me because I have been longing to play in the NWSL. I am looking forward to playing the rest of my career in the US and spending the rest of my life there” she told Falcons Media Officer Gracious Akujobi.
“The contract is for just the 2015 season, but I am keeping an open mind to see how it goes. I may renew at the end of the season. That will however, depend on lots of factors but I am hoping everything will go well”
Ordega will join the National Women’s Soccer League (NWSL) side, after the return leg of the All Africa Games qualifier against Mali.
The NWSL’s third campaign kicks off on April 10 and will end September 6.
